San Diego, October 5, 2015 –

Local Media San Diego, LLC and KFMB Stations, two leading digital and broadcast companies in the greater San Diego area, today announced a joint operating agreement that preserves local ownership and operation of San Diego’s top-rated radio stations.

“We’re excited to finalize this agreement with the KFMB Stations’ radio group,” said Gregg Wolfson, vice president and general manager at Local Media San Diego. “With both organizations focused exclusively on the San Diego market, this partnership gives us the resources to deliver even more localized programming, events, contests and promotions to our advertising partners and the San Diego community.”

The newly formed partnership between Local Media San Diego, LLC and KFMB Stations will be called SDLocal and will reach approximately 1.5 million listeners in the San Diego area.

“Local, independent broadcast companies are facing increased pressure from national competitors, but they can’t rival our years of experience serving San Diego,” said Elisabeth Kimmel, owner and president of Midwest Television, licensee of the KFMB Stations. “I’m eager to put our combined experience and assets to work for our customers across the region.”

KFMB Stations include radio stations 100.7 JACK FM, AM 760 KFMB and television station CBS 8.
